- Sports News
Welcome to the Fever Pitch Podcast, where co-hosts Brian and Dan bring you the latest and most exciting updates from the world of sports.
In this episode, we dive into some breaking news from the NFL. The 49ers have decided to keep Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel for now, with GM John Lynch stating, "We’re past" the trade talks involving these key players. We also provide an update on the NFL fifth-year option tracker for the 2021 first-round draft class and discuss the disappointing outcome of the Trey Lance project. Meanwhile, the Chiefs have secured Travis Kelce with a new 2-year, $34.25M contract, and former LSU teammates Jayden Daniels and Malik Nabers have placed a big bet on the Offensive Rookie of the Year. OBJ has signed with the Dolphins, and despite recent rumors, Saquon Barkley never received an offer from the Giants. In a surprising move, Ezekiel Elliott returns to the Cowboys, and there’s speculation that Aaron Donald might come out of retirement for the playoffs next year.
We also share some hot takes, including predictions that the Commanders secured the best QB in the draft, the Knicks will be in the NBA Finals, and Brandon Aiyuk won’t be a 49er by this time next year.
Switching to the NBA, we recap the first round of the playoffs. The Pacers stunned the Bucks, Joel Embiid played aggressively but the Knicks had the last laugh, and the Mavericks beat the Clippers 4-2. We discuss how the series will end for the Cavaliers and Magic, who are tied 3-3, and highlight that Paolo Banchero and Franz Wagner are the youngest duo in NBA history to each score 25+ points in an elimination game. The Thunder swept the Pelicans and are expected to face the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals. The Suns were swept by the Timberwolves, raising questions about Kevin Durant’s legacy and whether Devin Booker is a playoff choke artist. The Celtics beat the Heat 4-1, potentially taking the easiest route to the Eastern Conference Finals, while the Nuggets handled the Lakers, prompting speculation about the end of LeBron James’ career.
In other sports news, we preview the upcoming boxing matches between Bronze Bomber and unbeaten Jared Anderson on August 3, and the highly anticipated sanctioned pro fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson.
